Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFourier Series With Spectral and Wave Number DecompositionJung-Hua Chou, Raylin WuIn this study, the generic nature of Fourier series is pointed out and the requirement of dimensional homogeneity for physical systems is emphasized. By suitable application of non-dimensional variables, both time versus frequency and spatial versus wave number decomposition of Fourier series are included properly to put the physics involved into the right physical meanings. Furthermore, the high frequency noise … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Linear Programming Problems on the Parallel Virtual Machine EnvironmentJrJung Lyu, Hsing Luh, Ming-Chang LeeThis study developed a parallel algorithm to efficiently solve linear programming models. The proposed algorithm utilizes the Dantzig-Wolfe Decomposition Principle and can be easily implemented in a general distributed computing environment. The analytical performance of the well-known method, including the speedup upper bound and lower bound limits, was derived. Numerical experiments are also provided in order to verify the complexity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2004 · 7,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Mechanism of Stock Market Integration: Evidence for the Taiwan and U.S. Stock MarketMin-Hsien Chiang, Rung-Ho Lai, Hsiao-Ching LeeThis study investigates the sources of the comovement of the Taiwan and U.S. stock market. The empirical evidence shows that both economic fundamentals and equity risk premiums can act as transmission mechanisms of both markets. In the meantime, the financial integration is much stronger than real economic integration. Moreover, the deregulation of foreign investments in Taiwan and the Southeast Asian … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,195 accessesView PDFCite
